Gaetz for attorney general
In the sychophantocracy that is appointments to the next Presidential cabinet, noted pedophile Matt Gaetz is the next Attorney General. The best way to protect a henhouse is to put a fox in charge.

Melania controls her roll

The world’s richest man is about to get a free public education
If you love the idea of Elon Musk cutting the hell out of everything, consider this from George Will: “Debt service (13.1% of fiscal 2024 spending) is not optional and is larger than defense (12.9%), which Trump wants to increase. Entitlements (principally Social Security and Medicare) are 34.6%, and by Trumpian fiat are sacrosanct. So, Musk’s promise is to cut about 30% of the total budget from a roughly 40% portion of the budget, politics be damned.” In other words, Musk stands no chance. https://www.avpress.com/opinion/editorial/world-s-richest-person-is-abo…
